A horse is pulling on a cart, accelerating the cart forward. The cart and rider have a combined mass of 150 kg. The horse has a mass of 440 kg. The horse pulls on the cart with 75 newtons of force. 1. Draw and label a force diagram for the cart to the left of the picture and for the horse to the right of the picture. Add quantitative values for as many forces as possible.

A car is moving forward slowly and is speeding up. A student claims that the car exerts a force on itself or that the cars engine exerts a force on the car. (a) Argue that this idea cannot be accurate and that friction exerted by the road is the propulsive force on the car. Make your evidence and reasoning as persuasive as possible. (b) Is it static or kinetic friction? Suggestions: Consider a road covered with light gravel. Consider a sharp print of the tire tread on an asphalt road, obtained by coating the tread with dust.
The rocket sled shown in the figure decelerates at a rate of 155 m/s2 . Its passenger has a mass of 75 kg. Use a coordinate system in which the sled is moving in the positive direction, and assume the contact forces with the seat are the only forces acting on the passenger.(a) Calculate the horizontal component of the force that the seat exerts against his body, in newtons. What is the ratio of the magnitude of the horizontal force to the magnitude of the force of gravity? Find the angle of the total force that the seat exerts against his body. Give your answer in degrees from the negative horizontal direction, with positive being clockwise.
Problem 2 Cart and Pulley Apparatus Newton’s 2nd Law may be applied to a simple system consisting of a frictionless horizontal track on which a cart plus some masses on it (total mass M), that is connected by a massless string over a frictionless pulley to a mass, m, (hanger plus some mass attached) In lab, in Activity 1, you will use a cart and track apparatus, like in the figure at right, and a hanging mass (hanger plus mass) that pulls the cart.You are to derive an equation for the acceleration of the cart. In lab, you will use this equipment setup to experimentally verify your answer. In the following steps, use the following notation: M = total mass of cart (including contents) m = mass of weight hanger T = tension force in the string a = acceleration Applying Newton's 2nd Law to the Cart – Pulley Apparatus 1.

A 14.8 kg load of bricks (m1) hangs from one end of a rope that passes over a small, frictionless pulley, called an Atwood’s machine. A 27.4 kg counterweight (m2) is suspended from the other end of the rope, as shown in (Figure 1). The system is released from rest. What is the magnitude of the upward acceleration of the load of bricks? a = ? What is the tension in the rope while the load is moving? T = ? How does the tension compare to the weight of the load of bricks? The tension is greater than the weight of the load of bricks. The tension is less than the weight of the load of bricks. The tension is equal to the weight of the load of bricks. How does the tension compare to the weight of the counterweight? The tension is greater than the weight of the counterweight. The tension is less than the weight of the counterweight. The tension is equal to the weight of the counterweight.

I need help with this problem: A. Calculate the magnitude of the total force. B. When the fourth force is applied to the mass, it is observed that the velocity of the mass stops changing and remains constant. What are the horizontal and vertical components of the fourth force? I've tried adding up all of the velocitys and found Vtotal = 111.8 N with a direction of 26.5 deg. Which is incorrect. Below is the graph we are given.
